Private communities could contractually agree to run themselves in any manner, so long as everyone voluntarily agreed. No candidate must accept the endorsement of Stonewall Libertarians. Nor are we putting words in anyone's mouth. Many candidates uploaded the "Stonewall Libertarians Policy Statement" to their website and then simply stated they were in agreement with it. If they weren't in agreement with it, that is totally fine with me. Candidates are free to position themselves and accept whatever endorsements they choose. No force involved. If you don't understand that basic point, I think you need a refresher course on libertarianism.
